Pretzels are the writing food of the gods :D

[feigned-living.livejournal.com]

Now I want some pretzels!

I try not to snack as I write, because when I run out, I get distracted. But sometimes I've just got to eat something- and while I try to go the healthy route, often enough it ends up being the sweet route.

I also end up eating meals in front of the computer when I write...

I checked the first three boxes. I don't actually snack that much while I write-- I mean, it's not like I have multiple things from each category every day. When I do snack, though, it's fruit, chocolate (although this is more like something I eat when attempting to gain motivation to write), chips, or salted nuts. I try to steer away from things that a. require two hands, and/or b. will get grease or sticky residue on my hands (not optimal for typing at all).

I love XKCD.

I try to have a lot of beverages rather than snacks: water, tea, juice. I do suck down breath mints like a fiend, though.

[a-belletrist.livejournal.com]

Peanut M&Ms, hot tea and water.

[writingvixen.livejournal.com]

Slices of cheese and bottles of water and occasionally Mountain Dew.

Whatever I happen to have on hand! I find it hard to write and snack at the same time though, so I don't do it often.

I make my own version of Chex mix (it's only vaguely similar to the original recipe, and that's only if you squint really hard) that is salty delicious goodness, but it's horribly bad for me. Since I'm officially on the weight-loss bandwagon, I'm going to try to refrain from bad snacking this month.

[jynxgirl.livejournal.com]

OMG RECIPE PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love Chex mix

[teithiwr.livejournal.com]

I answered kind of contradictorily. :) The reason: I do sometimes snack when I write (trying for healthy snacks), but if I'm really in the flow, I forget to eat, and anyway, don't want to interrupt my mad typing spree for eating. I drink a load of tea, though.

[evaleastaristev.livejournal.com]

Mostly it's beverages, but really...if I get hungry, I'm going to take a quick trip to the kitchen, grab whatever's handy, and go back to writing.

I don't tend to snack,b tu nine times outta ten there's a can of Dr. Pepper infront of me

[slimequeen.livejournal.com]

I don't snack while I write or I'd eat too much. However, I will suck on Wintogreens periodically, and sometimes when I meet word count goals I'll reward myself with some cookies or something special. But that's AFTER writing.

I wouldn't have been able to finish in '06 if it weren't for Chicken In a Bisket crackers and cherry 7up.

[writingvixen.livejournal.com]

oh gosh. Those crackers used to be my favorite before I developed allergies.

[cheyinka]

Pistachios. I absolutely must have pistachios.

1) they are tasty
2) they require effort to open, so they are procrastinatory
3) they are good for me

[syntheticjesso.livejournal.com]

My mom once gave me a big bag of pre-shelled pistachios for Christmas, and oh man. I just about made myself sick. They were so good.

I will be drinking diet coke. It's strange, I gave up diet coke and my writing went in the bin (as in nil for like two months). I had some the other day and I finished two unfinished fan fictions and wrote a new one.

Probably some rich tea biscuits too, using them to scoop up chocolate mousse. :D It's a long story. What about you?

[pinkpolarity.livejournal.com]

I rarely snack when I write (though I snack entirely too much while I'm playing WoW!), but tend to go for chips. Greatest thing in the world right now are chocolate organic tortilla chips.

[allez-cuisine.livejournal.com]

Salty stuff...popcorn is a favorite (although messy if it's got butter, so I try to have air popped with just salt on it...) - and if I need a burst of energy, I'll have something sugary. Caramel sundae topping out of the jar is good for that. :)

[canicallyouhaku.livejournal.com]

I have a really really horrible writing catalyst - nerds, which ensures I'm utterly full of jitters the entire month, but they're like tiny colorful tangy pellets of inspiration, and I can't write without them.

[elbereth-light.livejournal.com]

I love crisps. Every now and then I give up eating them in an attempt to be healthy, but when I'm writing I just love to have a little bowl of 'em next to me.

[lmeighmy.livejournal.com]

The only time I eat when I'm writing is if my writing session happens to run into lunch or dinner, which isn't often, really. And I tend to get so involved in my writing that I don't think to get up and eat something until I'm famished. ;-)

[hand-of-erato.livejournal.com]

Nuts. Cashew, almonds, pistachios... oh, and satsumas! Ad diet coke! After that I'm happy! ^ ^

[slightlymore.livejournal.com]

I don't eat at all when I'm writing because I'm easily distracted and I just like to concentrate completely on what I'm doing. I will brew a cup of coffee every so often, though. To keep my mind going.

[elphie-7.livejournal.com]

Mmm, chips and chocolate. And loads of water.

[pomkeygeekange.livejournal.com]

Cream soda, doctor pepper, cola, raspberry ripple drink

as for snacks then finger food really. Crisps, chocolate, oat cakes, muffins and cerial.

Can not write without having something in my mouth.

[liadan-celt.livejournal.com]

I eat Craisins and candy corn while I write. I also drink roughly fifty billion gallons of tea.
